Yachting.

Mr. BELL thinks that it is demonstrated
that the Thistle can reach and run better
than the Volunteer" Yachtsmen say that q
haystack can run before the wind. but it
takes o boat to go against 1t. We don't be-
lieve Brother BELL Is quite as happy as he
Gays he Is. There is suggestion of the
build q monument to Gen. PAINE. The Gem
eral isn't dead yet; neither Is Mr.. BURGESS
Mr.. BELL talks Of getting becalmed for
some minutes and losing two minutes on
account Of his skipper being compelled to
hold up for fear Of striking the long anchor
cable Of the stake boat: and then he
makes the novel complaint of having to
make "seven tacks to the Volunteers
six" It is his opinion that 1.-THE Regatta
Committee Is q humbug." They didn't do
things In the way they do Eat home" Capt.
BARR, another of the jolly fellows on board
the Thistle. says that there is no use try
ing to have q fair race over here" un-
less the steamboats, are locked up. "They
make it very arduous for the boat that hap
pens to be behind" Then don't stay be-
hind! That is the way to get over it.
This leads us to remark that there liz a
good deal Of nonsense In the current talk
about the centreboard. Mr. WATSON, how
ever. has better opinion of 1t at present
than he had before, and this Is natural
enough; and perhaps some Of the
others are wiser also. We used to
hear q great deal about the immense
advantage that was to be gained over
keel boat by taking up the centreboard when
running free. 1t was said that the keel boat,
being compelled to drag her great draught
through the water, was OF course retarded,
while the light draught vessel got along
easily; but now 1t appears that In running
free the cutter can outfoot the sloop
trifle, but can't make up for the
loss on the wind. Besides, Mr.. BURGESS has
expressed the wish for chance to build
keel boat which he thinks might Guido all
his former efforts. Among the small racers
the Shadow was the only centreboarder that
vanquished the cutter Madge; but Mr.. BUR-
aEss's Papoose, keel sloop. knocked the
Shadow out Of sight.
We don't mean to disparage the centre
board by any means, bat We would mildly
suggest that 1t Is the boat that wins race
and not the board; and probably II
Mr.. BURGESS had built q keel cup
defender, the result Of Fridays race would
have been just the same. The boat that won
the cup was keel boat. The fastest schoon-
ers we ever had. including the Sappho, its
most brilliant defender In II, were keel boats.
II Is a popular error to suppose that all true
American yachts must have centreboRrds.

As Mr.. CLEVELAND is whirled along his
winding way. meditating upon the speeches
he is to make and dreaming Of eighty-eight,
the thought may occur TO him that circum-
spection and caution viii be necessary to the
success OF the grand electoneering tour
which he has undertaken.
Elected himself by the unintentional kick
Of three rolling words, he is In position
fully to appreciate what the effect OF an Inn
prudent speech may be upon candidates
prospects A dozen syllables dropped HARM
lessly and without malice may ring across
continent, smash the best contrived states,
and tip up Q row Of hopeful schemes and
ambitions.
The situation of o candidate for office Ia
always critical He may ruin his chances
unsuspectingly any day. without high
foresight or skilful management he will
be making enemies without knowing 1t.
and treading with innocent clumsiness upon
the corns Of his friends. He knows not the
day or the hour when his foot shall DO found
hopelessly inserted into his mouth.
Indeed. II candidates for the Presidency
were WISE they would take to the woods
Immediately after nomination, and remain
deaf, dumb, and invisible, 30 far as the public
Is concerned. until after election. No COM
promising speeches, no dangerous opinions
on difficult subieots, no gOod-natured fatal
concessions or declarations by which any
possible supporter could be alienated. could
then be drawn from them. They would be
safe, because they would be out OF the way.
But when man Is already President and
wants to be President again, there ls no way
in which he can shade himself from the living
Hight that beats upon the White House. lie
must put himself on exhibition. and exploit
himself as best he can. But II Is tickllsh busi-
hees and when he engages In an electioneer-
Ding tour he takes his political life In his hands.
Great but unsuspected dangers may lie in
lwatt for simple political tourist like MIR.
CLEVELAND. He has got to make GER
tain number OF set speeches, and these
will most likely be harmless. Moreover.
unexpected occasions and delegations can
not be provided against. And even II his
own mouth b padlocked with prudence,
who IL to protect him against the I'M
malicious mischief which may be done him
and his hopes by injudicious admirers
or oranks with faculty Of expression3
Eloquence, readiness, experience, presence
OF mind. and ample knowledge Of men and
affairs could not save Mr.. BLAINE from the
deadly volley of crank's mouth. Out OF his
own heoould not have been convicted. Per-
haps at this very moment some painful, con-
Scientious person In Missouri or Iowa may
be working upon an address which will prove
q BURCHARD triplst to the President Per-
haps In an unguarded moment the tourist
himself may hastily and innocently offend.
We mention these things to show what
weight OF care must accompany candidate
on wheels. II Mr.. CLEVELAND has tact and
good fortune he may escape the pitfalls and
perils that await him; but there Is no dis
guising the fact that his Western path Graves

Hastings Grant. then comptroll- CT of the city of New York. Their married life was model. They lived in delightful harmony and fond affec- tion for more than half a century. loving as devotedly at the last as at the first. They belonged to the church militant, were permitted to celebrate on earth their golden wedding, and although Mir Beckley died suddenly, of pneumonia, April 5, 1885, we now think of them as reunited and together walking the streets of the church triumphant.
 Mrs Beckley had long been an invalid, yet disease and suffering could not impair the gentleness and sweetness Of her character, but only added an increas- ed luster to it.
 By her death the name of Beckley becomes extinct in that branch of the family. She leaves two daughters, Mrs s. Ratings Grant of Piermont, and Mrs John Brewer, of New York city. She also leaves a large circle of grand children.
